{"product_id":"religious-truth-alon-goshen-gottstein-9781802071917","title":"Religious Truth: Towards a Jewish Theology of Religions","description":"\u003cp\u003eTruth informs much of the self-understanding of religious believers. Accordingly, understanding what we mean by 'truth' is a key challenge to interreligious collaboration. The contributors to this volume, all leading scholars, consider what is meant by truth in classical and contemporary Jewish thought, and explore how making the notion of truth more nuanced can enable interfaith dialogue. Their essays take a range of approaches: some focus on philosophy proper, others on the intersection with the history of ideas, while others engage with the history of Jewish mysticism and thought. Together they open up the notion of truth in Jewish religious discourse and suggest ways in which upholding a notion of one's religion as true may be reconciled with an appreciation of other faiths. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e By combining philosophical and theological thinking with concrete case studies, and discussion of precedents and textual resources within Judaism, the volume proposes new interpretations of the concept of truth, going beyond traditional exclusivist uses of the term. A key aim is to help Jews seeking dialogue with other religions to do so while remaining true to their own faith tradition: in pursuit of this, the volume concludes with suggestions of how the ideas presented can be applied in practice. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eCONTRIBUTORS: Cass Fisher, Jerome Yehuda Gellman, Alon Goshen-Gottstein, Avraham Yizhak (Arthur) Green, Stanislaw Krajewski, Tamar Ross\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alon Goshen-Gottstein\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1802071911\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781802071917\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Littman Library of Jewish Civilization\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.69lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.46d","brand":"Alon Goshen-Gottstein","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48459626021119,"sku":"9781802071917","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6a1d0d34-d579-4d2c-8e39-1d764ca5db4a.jpg?v=1777410873","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/religious-truth-alon-goshen-gottstein-9781802071917","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
